Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. KCNG3(potassium voltage-gated channel modifier subfamily G member 3) encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, subfamily G. This member is a gamma subunit functioning as a modulatory molecule. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.蛋白别名为:KCNG3; Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily G member 3; Voltage-gated potassium channel subunit Kv10.1; Voltage-gated potassium channel subunit Kv6.3;基因ID为:170850;蛋白质ID:Q8TAE7
